Good Morning!
This is the view out my front door. It once was a golf course, but they shut it down when I moved in. For good reason, I am the kind of golfer who banks his shots off the windows of his neighbors.
This is an important election. No, not the national circus, that is all the stuff of partisan bickering. Here, in my home town, the issue is more concrete, or should we say less concrete. A local referendum will decide whether to develop this land or leave it as a green space.
Guess where I stand on the matter.
Saturday, we drove down to the farm where nature has long since bowed to industry. Yet industry is not without its own stark beauty. This is the equipment shed on my in-law's farm.
Here are the bins.
A field truck chuck-full of soy bean prepares to unload.
And this is what it is all about. Putting beans in the bins.
Another year worth of planning, borrowing, planting, worrying and harvesting is drawing to a close.
